Assisted dying : doctors told they can voice personal opinions, as landmark bill is introduced

Article

LIMB, Matthew

NHS medical chiefs have cleared doctors to voice their personal opinions on the assisted dying bill, saying that it’s what the public would expect in the current debate. But they have also warned doctors not to directly engage patients in the debate, identify patients under their care without their consent, or imply they speak for the medical profession as a whole. The new advice to doctors came in a letter from the UK chief medical officers and England’s national medical director, Stephen Powis, published on 16 October.1 On the same day, an assisted dying bill that would give terminally ill people in England and Wales the right to end their lives was formally introduced to parliament.
